Recently, I was talking to some of my friends who are in their 40s. It seemed to me that the one common issue most of them were experiencing was consistent with perimenopause.
Most of you have heard of Menopause, which we attain after we have gone one year without a period.
Perimenopause is the period leading up to menopause, which can last up to nine years.
In addition to having irregularities of periods what most women do not realize is that we can have a host of seemingly unrelated symptoms. The problem arises when we do not associate these symptoms with perimenopause and feel like we have no other recourse.
This is the transition time where our hormone levels are fluctuating on a daily basis, and our symptoms vary based on the state of the hormonal balance.
The goal of this post is to raise awareness and not hesitate to look for solutions to help relieve these symptoms. Symptoms may be physical or emotional or a combination of both. They can be wide ranging, including hot flashes, night sweats, heart palpitations, anxiety, depression, irritability, hairloss, weight gain, including bellyfat as well as difficulty focusing and shortened attention span often described as brain fog. Some folks have even reported changes in body odor.

The first step is not to accept this as normal or unsolvable. It is important to take matters into our own hands and actively seek solutions. Reaching out to your medical caregivers to rule out non-menopausal conditions, including thyroid disease or vitamin D deficiency would be important.

Simple changes can include placing small fans at different areas of the home or at work, directing the airflow towards the face.
Magnesium supplements may help with sleep and night sweats and herbal supplements, including Chaste berry may help with period issues as well as the emotional upheavals.
Exercising regularly, doing yoga, mindfulness practices, and daily meditation have also been found to be useful.
It is important to be vigilant and hopeful so that we can actively seek solutions and relief and not remain passive.
Remember, you are in charge!

A few of you have asked me about the list of doctors that we had supplied earlier before the practice closed.
Here is a copy of that list of physicians in no particular order of preference.
Please ensure that these doctors take your insurance before you call them for appointments. Hope this is helpful.

As we get together in gratitude with friends and family, let us also give thanks to our troops that are separated from their families to provide protection for us so that we can be safe at home. Also remember those that are not as fortunate as us.
I give thanks to all of you for being in my life and trusting me with your care.
God Bless!

Hello again,
I know many of you were getting supplements from the office.

Here’s another edition of this popular and useful knowledge bite:
‘Tis the flu season….
Here are some helpful ways to avoid the flu
1. Please get your flu shots. Vaccination is the single most effective way and the most bang for your buck to prevent infection.
2. Wash your hands frequently and avoid touching your nose or face whenever possible.
3. If unable to wash your hands, then using hand sanitizer is another way to limit exposure.
4. Practice good environmental hygiene by keeping surface areas clean.
5. Limit being around sick people and more importantly, isolate yourself if you feel under the weather..
6. Avoid stuffy or poorly ventilated rooms and use masks in crowded areas.
7. Avoid sharing food or drinks.
Remember #1 is the most important of all the above.
If you find these useful, then please feel free to share liberally.

For those of you that did not have a chance to come and get your records before the practice closed:
All your medical records are with Morgan records management company at (833) 888-0061. Or else you may go to Morganrecordsmanagement.com and request your records there.
Remember that all your current labs and tests will be available to you and your Physician through the hospitals where you had these tests done. Most patients will not need any older records unless they have had other procedures. Please also check with your primary care physician because a lot of tests results were shared with them.
You may also privately message me on the messenger app here on Facebook.
My best, always 🙏🏽

‘When gotta go has got to go!’
Many of you remember this chair and many of you have used this chair with significant benefits. In case you were wondering where this chair went after TOTAL Womens Care closed, look no further.
It is in Canton at the Blurred Lines Medical Spa across from the Belden Village Mall.
Please do not allow the benefits you have achieved from lapsing and seek out booster treatments today.

Hello folks
Here is another simple but truly life saving tidbit:
Most can recall their weight or height or even their SS number. But I bet most dont know all or most of these numbers!
Truth be told these are the more important numbers that you have to know :
1. Your Blood pressure and Heart rate - is easily obtained at home by using a blood pressure machine purchased at your local pharmacy. Many of them are high-tech and can sync the data to your phone but a simple one is adequate. Its also important to get a small notebook and keep a running log of this information by date and time. This information is very helpful to any physician you go to. Untreated high blood pressure or hypertension, can cause significant damage to vital organs, including the heart, brain and kidneys. Ideally these numbers should be less than 120/80
2. Cholesterol - most physicians are very conscientious about ordering these tests for the patients over a certain age. Did you know, though that the breakdown of the numbers is more relevant? HDL cholesterol over 50 is known to be cardio protective. The opposite is true for LDL cholesterol. Ideally one would like to see this under 100.
3. C reactive protein - known as an inflammatory marker most patients do not get what is called as high sensitivity CRP. Check with your physician when you get blood testing next time.
4. HbA1C - this blood test tells the physician how well your blood sugars were controlled in the past three months. High blood sugars cause high insulin levels in the body, which can add to inflammation. Ideally this number should be less than 5.5.
5. Waist circumference - wrap a tape measure around your abdomen at the level of your belly button and measure. This number should be less than half your height in inches.
Increased abdominal fat is an indicator of increased fat around the internal organs, leading to inflammation and premature aging.

So please go back and check these numbers for yourselves and cut down the inflammation, which causes disease and premature aging as well. Empower yourselves and live your best lives.

Please don’t hesitate to share with others that you think will benefit from this.
And as always, I welcome your comments and thoughts for that motivates me to post more in the future.

….until the next time ❤️

Constipation : arguably one of the most common complaints amongst folks from all ages and genders.
Did you know that just like we have a circadian rhythm for sleep, we also have a circadian rhythm for our bowel movements which typically occur about every 24 hours.
Unfortunately, a lot of us ignore these clues from our body and over time our bodies stop providing us these clues leading to irregular bowel movements.
Ideally, bowel movements should occur every day, but can be as infrequently as two or three days apart. While this is not ideal, it is still better than pooping once a week or longer? How long would you allow the trash to build up in your kitchen?

Here are three simple yet extremely effective tips to ensure daily bowel movements:
1. Adequate amount of fluids. While it’s Best to stick to water, any fluid is fine. Aim for 8 to 10 servings a day with each serving being about 8 ounces.
2. Adequate fiber every day. 30 to 40 grams is recommended every day and this could come from any source. Going back to natural sources is always best. I find eating one raw bell pepper or one organic Apple per day is helpful. The key is to pick something that you like and make it a daily habit. The more processed our diet is the less fiber it has.
3. Listen to the signals from your body when it wants you to move your bowels. The longer you ignore it the less likely it is to provide those signals.
4. Daily probiotics are helpful but it’s not essential as the above three.
Simply moving your bowels regularly will help eliminate undigested waste from your body and thus decrease the risk for toxins being reabsorbed into the body and the development of polyps in the colon.

Please comment and let me know if this information was helpful.
Thanks

Hello folks!
While I am enjoying the free time, I am also missing the one on one interactions I had with you. I guess I also benefited from our chats and meetings.
I am also realizing the enormous lack of basic medical/health information out there.

While I do not have all the answers, I feel I still have some pearls of wisdom to share. Many of you have already benefited over the years.

So I decided to periodically post some of them. Your comments are always welcome.
If there are any topics you wish to see in these posts, please let me know and I will do my best to provide my two cents.

I ran into a couple of patients that had gone to other Ob/Gyns in the area and felt that they had not been heard adequately.
As your caregivers, we have an obligation to provide optimal care and satisfying interactions. So I am humbly requesting that you do not accept mediocre care and have an open conversation regarding your expectations. In the event these conversations leave you unfulfilled, its ok to continue your search for someone that you can share an emotional connection with.
